Ezekiel 41 ~ Ezekiel 41

picture

1 A nd the man brought me to the temple and measured the wall pillars, six cubits broad on one side and six cubits broad on the other side, which was the breadth of the tabernacle or tent.

And he bringeth me in unto the temple, and he measureth the posts, six cubits the breadth on this side, and six cubits the breadth on that side -- the breadth of the tent.

2 A nd the breadth of the entrance was ten cubits, and the leaves of the door were five cubits on the one side and five cubits on the other side; and he measured its length, forty cubits, and its breadth, twenty cubits.

And the breadth of the opening ten cubits; and the sides of the opening five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side; and he measureth its length forty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.

3 T hen the man went inside and measured each post of the door, two cubits, the doorway, six cubits, and the breadth of the entrance, seven cubits.

And he hath gone inward, and measureth the post of the opening two cubits, and the opening six cubits, and the breadth of the opening seven cubits.

4 A nd he measured the length in the temple proper, twenty cubits, and the breadth, twenty cubits; and he said to me, This is the Most Holy Place (the Holy of Holies).

And he measureth its length twenty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits, unto the front of the temple, and he saith unto me, `This the holy of holies.'

5 T hen he measured the wall of the temple, six cubits thick; and the breadth of every side chamber, four cubits, round about the temple proper on every side.

And he measureth the wall of the house six cubits, and the breadth of the side-chamber four cubits, all round the house round about.

6 T hese side chambers were three stories high, one over another and thirty in each story; and they entered into the wall which belonged to the house for the side chambers round about, that they might have hold of the wall, but they did not have hold of the wall of the temple.

And the side-chambers side-chamber by side-chamber, three and thirty times; and they are entering into the wall -- which the house hath for the side-chambers all round about -- to be taken hold of, and they are not taken hold of by the wall of the house.

7 A nd the side rooms became broader as they encompassed the temple higher and higher, for the encircling of the house went higher and higher round about the temple; therefore the breadth of the house continued upward, and so one went up from the lowest story to the highest one by way of the middle story.

And a broad place and a turning place still upwards to the side-chambers, for the turning round of the house still upwards all round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house upwards, and so the lower one goeth up unto the higher by the midst.

8 I saw also that the temple had an elevation or foundation platform round about it. The foundations of the side chambers measured a full reed measure of six long cubits.

And I have looked at the house, the height all round about: the foundations of the side-chambers the fulness of the reed, six cubits by the joining.

9 T he thickness of the outer wall of the side chamber was five cubits, as was the width of that part of the foundation that was left free of the side chambers that belonged to the house.

The breadth of the wall that to the side-chamber at the outside five cubits; and that which is left the place of the side-chambers that to the house.

10 A nd between the chambers was a breadth of twenty cubits round about the temple on every side.

And between the chambers a breadth of twenty cubits round about the house, all round about.

11 A nd the doors of the attached side chambers opened on the free space that was left, one door toward the north and another door toward the south; and the breadth of the space on the foundation platform that was left free was five cubits round about.

And the opening of the side-chamber to the place left, one opening northward, and one opening southward, and the breadth of the place that is left five cubits all round about.

12 A nd the building that faced the temple yard on the west side was seventy cubits broad, and the wall of the building was five cubits thick round about, and its length ninety cubits.

As to the building that at the front of the separate place the corner westward, the breadth seventy cubits, and the wall of the building five cubits broad all round about, and its length ninety cubits.

13 A nd the man measured the temple, a hundred cubits long; and the yard and the building with its walls, a hundred cubits long;

And he hath measured the house, the length a hundred cubits; and the separate place, and the building, and its walls, the length a hundred cubits;

14 A lso the breadth of the east front of the temple and the yard, a hundred cubits.

and the breadth of the front of the house, and of the separate place eastward, a hundred cubits.

15 T hen the man measured the length of the building on the west side of the yard with its walls on either side, a hundred cubits. The Holy Place of the temple, the inner Holy of Holies, and the outer vestibule

And he hath measured the length of the building unto the front of the separate place that at its hinder part, and its galleries on this side and on that side, a hundred cubits, and the inner temple and the porches of the court,

16 W ere roofed over, and all three had latticed windows all around. The inside walls of the temple were paneled with wood round about from the floor up to the windows and from the windows to the roof,

the thresholds, and the narrow windows, and the galleries round about them three, over-against the threshold, a ceiling of wood all round about, and the ground unto the windows and the covered windows,

17 I ncluding the space above the door leading to the inner room, inside and out. And on the walls round about in the inner room and the Holy Place were carvings,

over above the opening, and unto the inner-house, and at the outside, and by all the wall all round about within and without measure.

18 W ith figures of cherubim and palm trees, so that a palm tree was between a cherub and a cherub; and every cherub had two faces,

And it is made cherubs and palm-trees, and a palm-tree between cherub and cherub, and two faces to the cherub;

19 S o that the face of a man was toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side. It was made this way through all the house round about.

and the face of man unto the palm-tree on this side, and the face of a young lion unto the palm-tree on that side; it is made unto all the house all round about.

20 F rom the floor to above the entrance were cherubim and palm trees made, and also on the wall of the temple.

from the earth unto above the opening the cherubs and the palm-trees made, and the wall of the temple.

21 T he door frames of the temple were squared, and in front was what appeared to be

Of the temple the side post square, and of the front of the sanctuary, the appearance as the appearance.

22 A n altar of wood, three cubits high and two cubits long; and its corners, its base, and its sides were of wood. And the man said to me, This is the table that is before the Lord.

Of the altar, the wood three cubits in height, and its length two cubits; and its corners to it, and its length, and its walls of wood, and he speaketh unto me, `This the table that before Jehovah.'

23 A nd the temple or Holy Place and the sanctuary or Holy of Holies, had two doors.

And two doors to the temple and to the sanctuary;

24 A nd the doors had two leaves apiece, two folding leaves—two leaves for the one door and two leaves for the other door.

and two leaves to the doors, two turning leaves to the doors, two to the one door, and two leaves to the other.

25 A nd there were carved on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubim and palm trees, like those carved upon the walls; and there was also a canopy of wood in front of the porch outside.

And made on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubs and palm-trees as are made on the walls, and a thickness of wood at the front of the porch on the outside.

26 A nd there were recessed windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side of the porch. Thus were the side chambers and the canopies of the house.

And narrow windows and palm-trees on this side, and on that side, at the sides of the porch, and the side-chambers of the house, and the thick places.
